§ 30. Mr. Gowerasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will consider the removal of stamp duty for residential leases and for mortgages under £2,000.

Friend for that reply, may I ask him whether he will take into account the fact that, whereas the concession on the purchase of houses was a salutary help to property ownership, this proposed concession is in respect of much smaller duties generally and is consistent with the earlier concession?
